Second season of Orange is the New Black launched today.

 

Anyone else into this?

 

I have to admit to being a bit of a TV/movie-phile.  I generally buy Blu-Rays when there's a movie I want to see rather than just watching it on PPV or In-demand (I like to collect).

 

Premium TV has really been leading a creative resurgence in recent years, probably dating back to The Sopranos.  Its nice that Netflix has become a legitimate competitor for HBO (which puts out some really great shows like Sopranos, Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire, True Blood etc).

 

House of Cards was tremendous.

 

While cable channels like AMC are getting in on the act, I annoys me a bit.  The Walking Dead would be so much better on Netflix or HBO where they could truly appeal to adults (HBO passed on The Walking Dead when Thomas Jane was attached).

 

As for Orange, it took me a few episodes to get into last season but Im looking forward to banging out a few episodes tonight.

 

As an aside, for you Trekies, it was recently the 20th anniversary of the finale of TNG, one of the best Series' Finales in TV history.

it's not the CBS series it's the OG series

I don't know if the tvline article mentioned it but the cast took a 25 percent pay cut to keep the show going

no, just no, even though I was NEVER into Harry Potter in any form or media they can cast whoever they want but to me Daniel Radcliff will always be Harry Potter, Emma Watson will always be Hermoine Grangier, Rupert Grint will always be Ron Weasley, I could go on

That's not a bad idea, I sometimes find it difficult to pick up on a new season of a show after long layoff without re-watching the previous season.

Senior moments means a lot of new movies to watch...like this Star Wars movie. Don't recall seeing it.

Sometimes I wonder if they retain memories of their OG lives....and if not if they ever read about themselves....I haven't seen it but I understand how big the cult following is

****** love succession. Hate having only getting to watch one a week though

 Same with Ted lasso. Really enjoying the final season but man the one a week is a bummer

 

Also I really enjoyed daisy jones and the six. Takes a while to hook you but it's good 

TV shows are supposed to be once a week... That's the whole point. A whole bunch of episodes all at once is called a movie.

Much to the chagrin of the binge watchers.

Just finished it. Fantastic show. They also hooked me with the 90s alt rock, which fit the show perfectly. I am going to be thinking about that ending for a while.

Succession S4 E3.......One of the all time great episodes of television. Incredible. Had a hard time shutting down for sleep after watching it last night. Mind was racing...

*SPOILER WARNING* (...if you haven't seen Ep 3 yet) 
 

 

I think Disney+ is going to be stupid for just dropping all the episodes at once
